I'm thrilled to lick the envelope shut and mail it, the envelope with an "Author Contract" inside, a contract agreeing that NeWest Press will publish my Hillsdale Book.
Just last weekend in Saskatoon I was moaning about never getting another book out. I don't know what the hell I'll do if they don't take it I think I said.
I began gathering this book over four years ago. It's got everything I have as a writer (I think--I haven't read it since submitting it from Banff in May).
I did remember to sign the contract before mailing it back.

Yay! Congratulations!
Congrats!!!
Thanks, you two. How's this for a launch idea: rent a bus, drive around Hillsdale, stopping for poems on location. Then party.
Brilliant! I'm reserving a seat near the front on the drivers side!
I'll arrange for birds.
Yay, Gerry! That launch idea sounds like great fun! And I want the seat behind Brenda's.
PS: I'm waiting for an update on the overcoat.
I SAW the overcoat! Ha!
In Saskatoon a friend leaned in to give me a hug and lingered a tad long. Because of the coat.
I MISSED the OVERCOAT? I miss all the fun!
